Preferably, eachslide slot 212 is formed in the upper right quadrant of the correspondingconfining wall 211, as best shown inFIGS. 2 and 3 . In addition, eachlatching notch 210 extends in a radial outward direction relative to the pivot axis (A). - Each of the
cover caps 3 serves to cover an outer surface of a respective one of theconfining walls 211. - Referring again to
FIGS. 4 and 5 , the secondpivot connecting portion 23 is formed with anelongate compartment 232, and includes a pair of spaced apartcompartment walls 231 that have thecompartment 232 disposed therebetween. Each of thecompartment walls 231 is formed with a wall opening 233 that is in spatial communication with thecompartment 232. - Referring back to
FIG. 2 , thearmrest member 22 includes anupper shell part 221, and alower shell part 222 connected to theupper shell part 221. Theupper shell part 221 has a hollowrear segment 234 that opens downwardly. Thelower shell part 222 has a hollowrear segment 235 that opens upwardly. Therear segments lower shell parts pivot connecting portion 23, and cooperate to confine the compartment 232 (seeFIG. 5 ). Therear segment 234 of theupper shell part 221 has acurved top wall 226 and a pair ofside walls 227 that extend from opposite lateral edges of thecurved top wall 226. Theside walls 227 are formed withnotches 223, which result in thewall openings 233 when thelower shell part 222 is connected to theupper shell part 221. In this embodiment, one side of theupper shell part 221 is provided with acontainer 220 that opens upwardly. Thecontainer 220 is a cup holder in this embodiment. Thelower shell part 222 is formed with anotch 225 that mates with thecontainer 220 when thelower shell part 222 is connected to theupper shell part 221. - Referring to
FIGS. 3, 5 and 6, thelocking unit 24 is mounted operably in the secondpivot connecting portion 23, and includes apress member 241 that is accessible externally of the secondpivot connecting portion 23, and alocking tab unit 243 that projects from thepress member 241. Thepress member 241 is movably received in thecompartment 232. Preferably, the secondpivot connecting portion 23 is formed with atop opening 224 in the curvedtop wall 226 of therear segment 234 of theupper shell part 221 of thearmrest member 22 to enable thepress member 241 to protrude outwardly of thecompartment 232. Thelocking tab unit 243 includes a pair of lockingtabs 245 that project respectively from opposite sides of thepress member 241, that project respectively through thewall openings 233 in thecompartment walls 231, and that extend respectively into theslide slots 212 in the confiningwalls 211. Thepress member 241 is formed with an elongated throughslot 244 therethrough. Apivot axle 240 extends through the throughslot 244 to interconnect pivotally the first and secondpivot connecting portions press member 241 in thecompartment 232 is thus limited by thepivot axle 240. The lockingunit 24 further includes a biasingmember 242 that is disposed in thecompartment 232 and that is a compression spring in this embodiment. - Each wall opening 233 is in spatial communication with the latching
notch 210 in the adjacent one of the confiningwalls 211 when thearmrest member 22 is at the first position, which is a lowered position relative to thearmrest mount 20, as best shown inFIGS. 5, 6 and 7. Thepress member 241 is operable to move from a locking position to an unlocking position when thearmrest member 22 is at the first position. At the locking position, the biasingmember 242 biases thepress member 241 upward such that thepivot axle 240 is at a lower end of the throughslot 244 and such that the lockingtabs 245 of thelocking tab unit 243 extend into the latchingnotches 210 in the confiningwalls 211 of the firstpivot connecting portion 21 to engage the firstpivot connecting portion 21 and to arrest pivoting movement of thearmrest member 22 relative to thearmrest mount 20. At the unlocking position, upon pressing thepress member 241 to move thepivot axle 240 into an upper end of the throughslot 244, the lockingtabs 245 of thelocking tab unit 243 are moved out of the latchingnotches 210 in the confiningwalls 211 of the firstpivot connecting portion 21 so as to disengage the firstpivot connecting portion 21 and permit pivoting movement of thearmrest member 22 between the first and second positions. When the lockingtabs 245 of thelocking tab unit 243 are moved out of the latchingnotches 210, and thearmrest member 22 is pivoted from the first position to the second position, the lockingtabs 245 move along theslide slots 212 until the lockingtabs 245 abut against the rear slot ends 214 of theslide slots 212, thereby limiting further pivoting movement of thearmrest member 22. At the second position, thearmrest member 22 is raised relative to thearmrest mount 20, as best shown inFIG. 8 . - In sum, the
armrest mount 20 and thearmrest member 22 of the armrest device of this invention are respectively formed with pivotally interconnected first and secondpivot connecting portions armrest member 22 is pivotable relative to thearmrest mount 20 between first and second positions. The lockingunit 24 includes thepress member 241 accessible externally of the secondpivot connecting portion 23, and thelocking tab unit 243 projecting from thepress member 241. Thelocking tab unit 243 engages the latchingnotches 210 in the firstpivot connecting portion 21 to arrest pivoting movement of thearmrest member 22 at the first (lowered) position. By simply pressing thepress member 241, thelocking tab unit 243 is disengaged from the firstpivot connecting portion 21 to permit pivoting movement of thearmrest member 22 from the first position to the second (raised) position. Movement of a child into and out of the safety seat 1 is facilitated when thearmrest member 22 is at the second (raised) position. - In this embodiment, there is no need to operate the
press member 241 when moving thearmrest member 22 from the second position back to the first position. In other embodiments of this invention, eachslide slot 212 may be configured with twolatching notches 210 respectively adjacent to the front and rear slot ends 213, 214. In such embodiments, the lockingunit 24 can retain releasably thearmrest member 22 at the first and second positions. - While the present invention has been described in connection with what is considered the most practical and preferred embodiment, it is understood that this invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiment but is intended to cover various arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the broadest interpretation so as to encompass all such modifications and equivalent arrangements.
